Kano giggled next to Izaya as Kuroko stared back at them, but Izaya simply glared at the thing. Normally psychic-types intrigued him, but he was pretty sure this particular one had it out for him after it stuffed his shoes with twigs and other painful, outdoor things the last they’d met. He would have kicked it, but he couldn’t be sure the Espurr wouldn’t rat them out before they reached their destination. At the very least, he didn’t want to be reported by the Rocket driving the van.
The conversation from the two humans in the front seats soon occupied the informant’s attention, however. A ride from the park to somewhere else? That certainly sounded familiar. Now that he could guess where Zacharie was going, the mystery was solved and Izaya could simply head back with the van to base once they dropped the young Rocket off. Something kept him from wanting to simply leave it at that, though.
Was it guilt for having hurt the purple-haired youth? No, Izaya couldn’t afford to feel guilt when he’d done that on purpose. He refused to believe it was jealousy of the Dubois’ disgusting brotherly love. But the only other time he’d seen Zacharie in the company of Andre was at the Valentine’s Day Ball and he’d been too drugged up at the time to utilize that information to his benefit. Now, though...now was his chance.
When the van stopped to let Zacharie off, Izaya asked Kano to disguise their abandoning of the vehicle as well. It wasn’t until the driving Rocket was well on their way that the informant allowed his Zoroark to drop the illusion he’d kept on them both. The black-haired man stood there beside Kano, his sunglasses hiding his eyes and his hands in his pockets as he took a casual stance.
“Off to your beloved big brother’s, Zachie-chan?”

“How could I know you better when you refuse to let me get to know you?” Zacharie fired right back before letting out a little sigh of relief when he spotted the familiar, black car waiting for him. He just had to get to the car, Louis would see how awkward this was, and would send Izaya on his way.
If he managed to make it to the car, that is.
Kuroko, sensing the breaking point, wisely hopped out of his trainer’s arms just as they swung open in exasperation. “What do you mean you don’t see why I should care?!” He exclaimed shrilly, staring at the other incredulously. “Are you stupid?” He stepped into Izaya’s space and grabbed the front of his shirt in a tight fist to shake him a bit. “I care if you get hurt you undeniably obtuse a**! How many times do I have to tell you this for it to get through that thick skull of yours?!”
“Zacharie!” He could hear Kuroko’s voice somewhere off to his left but he ignored the Espurr in favour of seeing if he could literally shake some sense into Izaya’s head. The matter was, literally, taken out of his hands as Izaya was yanked away by a rather surprised looking Louis. The blond-haired man held the trainee at a distance by the back of his shirt with one hand and reached for his phone with the other. “Zacharie, are you alright?”
The purple-haired boy just gave a rather disgruntled noise and started stomping over to the car, stooping to pick up his pokemon as he went. Louis watched the younger boy walk away before his gaze slid to Izaya. “Would you care to explain yourself before I call Andre?”

Izaya rolled his eyes. “It was a rhetorical question. Anyway, you already know me a fair bit more than I’d care for you to and it should be obvious from my prior actions.” His crimson gaze focused on the black car as it pulled up but he made no move to go toward it just yet.
The man jumped backward instinctively when Zacharie cried out in exasperation and flung out his arms. He paled when the front of his shirt was grabbed and stared with wide eyes at the Rocket who had him in his grip. He wanted to say something, but he couldn’t open his mouth. His lips stayed shut tight in a thin line, his expression blank with shock. A bright sheen glossed his eyes, though, like they were overly moist. The line of his mouth trembled.
And then he was yanked away like some doll from one man-handling brute to another. Izaya pouted deeply and glared at the ground as his eyes burned, finding himself helpless to do much else. When Louis addressed him, he didn’t bother looking at the blonde. Instead, he continued to determinedly stare at his feet. It took him a few moments to try to get his thoughts together before he could think of what to say.
“I don’t know why you’re asking me that and asking him if he’s okay when I was clearly the one being grabbed,” he muttered half-heartedly. He struggled to free himself from Louis’ grasp. “I’d appreciate it if you let me go now. It’s not much fun being passed around like a hot potato.” Why had he come here again? Ah, right. He’d wanted to mess with Andre. That idea had suddenly lost its appeal. “Just...there’s no need to call Andre. I’m leaving. Pretend you never saw me.”
